Well, seriously, I didn’t expect that.
Like Jackart, I called this one wrong. Unlike Jackart, I am delighted to be proved wrong. And, no, the sky will not fall in, we will not have WWIII and we will not suffer a plague of locusts. We will survive. We will do so having removed an unelected and unaccountable layer of bureaucracy from our governance.
As for Europe, well, that could get interesting. I was talking to German chap a couple of weeks back and he told me that many of his countrymen were watching with interest as it will give impetus for other nations to push for a referendum.
And, what do we see?
EU leaders and officials will spend Friday scrambling to prepare for a crisis session this weekend, ahead of a regular summit next Tuesday and Wednesday. Priorities are likely to be preventing further contagion spreading through EU ranks – and the euro currency.
I’ll be getting the popcorn in…
Cameron gone, Osborne soon to follow, Labour about to summon up the courage to oust Corbyn… the UK political scene resembles a ‘Game of Thrones’ penultimate episode right now.
Better order more popcorn 🙂
Corbyn had an opportunity here and blew it. he came across as a vacillating hypocrite. Oh, er…
“…he came across as a vacillating hypocrite…”
Sounds pretty much like the job spec for a politician today.
Whenever the people have actually been given a vote about the EU, they have rejected it.
I must admit I retired to bed last night filled with doom and gloom as I fully expected the result to be a rigged one.
Instead I awoke to brilliant sunshine on an outcome I least expected.
I take my old uniform cap off to Quisling Cameroon, at least he has fallen on his sword and with him working his notice showing some leadership in the uncertain times that lay ahead.
I just hope that odious vagina Osborne is given his marching orders by the men in grey suits today. His was the most unacceptable face of the whole Remain campaign.
As for Quisling’s call for a new Conservative PM by Octobre; the decison we have taken places the country’s interests above that of party politics. Although it is probably too soon to call for a general election, especially with all the bitterness generated during the referendum campaign, perhaps Octobre might also be a good time to pencil one in for?
The Remainiac leaders, the lying swine, are all dead in the water now. Good! I hope Gove becomes PM. At least he is bright and forceful enough to lead negotiations. Boris of course is always colourful. Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah! We won.
“…are all dead in the water now…”
Wooden stakes through the heart – just to be sure?
Otherwise I am still very wary and deeply mistrustful of the bastards.
Wonder how the people of the EU’s nation states will react to their democratic right being described as ‘contagion’. Extra big bag of popcorn needed.
